Video Summary
In this video, gynecologic oncologist Dr. Rainer Kimmich introduces a new educational offering from the International Gynecologic Cancer Society (IGCS). The program aims to provide educational opportunities for gynecologic oncology professionals on current and future treatments for patients. Dr. Andrea Mariani and Dr. Kerry Langstroth from the Mayo Clinic join the discussion to talk about a recent publication by Serena Cappuccio on the shift from inpatient to outpatient hysterectomy for endometrial cancer in the United States. The study analyzed trends, enabling factors, cost, and safety of outpatient versus inpatient hysterectomy. The study showed a shift towards minimally invasive surgery, driven by the adoption of robotic surgery. Complication rates remained unchanged and overall healthcare costs decreased. The panel discusses the impact of robotic surgery on patient outcomes, cost, and patient satisfaction. They also touch on the future potential of robotic technology in education and surgical standardization.
